I've been able to reproduce this and I'm pretty sure it's a node issue. Can you toggle the nxConsole.showNodeVersionOnStartup on and see whether the node version is what you expect? Refer to the troubleshooting guide for more information about nvm & node issues: https://nx.dev/recipes/nx-console/console-troubleshooting

I was able to find an error in the developer console (Help -> Toggle Developer Tools). I'll make a PR to surface this information to users better.

In my case the problem was that for the version that was loaded in VSCode (16), I didn't have yarn installed globally so an error was thrown.

Hi @MaxKless sounds like this is probably the issue. Surfacing what is going wrong would be super useful! I think some sort of editor warning popping up saying something like "no global node binary found" or something like that would be excellent for figuring out these issues.

Here's what my dev console looks like:

Thanks for the quick response!

By the way, I tried setting nxConsole.showNodeVersionOnStartup to true but wasn't able to see the node version any where in the logs. Is this setting supposed to pop up a toast on startup? Doesn't seem to be working for me.

tnrich commented 6 months ago

Oh, it is supposed to pop a toast up, but without a global node installed I didn't get one.. haha

After installing node globally it works:

@MaxKless , totally unrelated to this issue, but I thought maybe you could help push this feature along - https://github.com/nrwl/nx/pull/15265#issuecomment-1950243961

:)

MaxKless commented 6 months ago

The errors will be shown with https://github.com/nrwl/nx-console/pull/2082 I appreciate the thorough bug documentation & videos it really helped me get to this fast :)

Though unrelated pings maybe aren't best practice I've asked around internally about that PR :)
